In addition, each child received a pair of gloves and immediately put them on to prepare for the winter.\r\n\r\nThe hats and snacks are being distributed, and today I treated them to some biscuits with hot chocolate that they drank during phonics class to warm themselves up after frigid temperatures.\r\n\r\nWe are so grateful to have new items that each child can claim as their own.","fullyFundedDate":1769461260503,"projectUrl":"project/winter-warmth/10052800/","projectTitle":"Winter Warmth","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Rabinowitz","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/272x272/tp3939403_272x272.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1474808548712","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/miss-rabinowitz"},{"teacherId":7867183,"projectId":9683246,"letterContent":"The printer and ink from this project have made a meaningful difference in my 6th–8th grade classroom by ensuring that all students have equal access to learning materials. While many donors use printers at home, in a school setting this technology is essential for daily instruction. It allows me to quickly print assignments, graphic organizers, reading materials, and assessments so students can actively engage with lessons instead of sharing limited resources or waiting for copies.\r\n\r\nWhat excites students most is the immediacy and reliability of having materials available when they need them. Students are more focused and prepared when they have their own clear, printed copies to work with. This is especially helpful during writing activities, small-group work, and test preparation, where students can annotate, highlight, and organize their thinking directly on the page.\r\n\r\nSeveral students have especially benefited from this project, particularly English language learners and students who need additional structure or support. Having printed materials helps them follow along at their own pace, revisit instructions, and build confidence in their work. Students who struggle with organization also benefit from consistent access to worksheets and handouts they can keep and reference. Overall, this printer has helped create a more organized, equitable, and supportive learning environment where all students are better equipped to succeed. Thank you again for all your support in funding my project.","fullyFundedDate":1758898858858,"projectUrl":"project/a-fresh-start/9683246/","projectTitle":"A Fresh Start","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Yildirim","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7867183_orig.png?crop=1125,1125,x0,y682&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1649041023640","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/christine-yildirim"},{"teacherId":3939403,"projectId":9948798,"letterContent":"We are so very grateful to you for your generous donations especially as we are returning to school during the winter season.

One of our first projects was a collaborative \"learning stations\" activity where students rotated through small groups to explore the resources hands-on. For example, at one station they used the new materials to investigate real-world problems, and at another they created mini-presentations to teach classmates what they discovered. It has already improved both engagement and independence during our lessons. Several of them gasped, and a few even asked, \"Is this really for us?\" They immediately started imagining how we could use everything. That moment—watching their excitement turn into curiosity—was a reminder of how powerful your generosity truly is. We're now moving into a project where students will apply these tools to a longer, multi-step challenge. Over the next few weeks, they'll plan, create, revise, and present their work, using the new resources at each stage. This will help them strengthen skills like critical thinking, collaboration, and problem-solving. I'm excited to see how far they grow with the support you've given us.","fullyFundedDate":1757808108393,"projectUrl":"project/project-level-up/9656764/","projectTitle":"Project Level Up!","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Wooten","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp10227573_orig.jpg?crop=1:1,smart&width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1757811969230","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/10227573"},{"teacherId":2034019,"projectId":9307831,"letterContent":"Thank you for your donations.

Students are asking questions about sound design, video editing, and how to frame powerful narratives.
